Lenovo ThinkStation 6493 Video Card
All video cards computes and sends the rendered images to a monitor where you can see the results. Currently, graphics card maker nVidia is the most popular in the dedicated card market, while AMD is sitting in second place. There are really only two kinds of video cards, integrated and dedicated. Integrated graphics are integrated into the motherboard itself, while dedicated is a separarate piece of hardware that gets installed. Most new desktops will have at least one spot available for a graphics card to be installed. A dedicated graphics card is pretty much required for any high-end games you play on a desktop like Battlefield, Fortnite or Far Cry. Integrated video cards will never be better than a separate video card, in general.
